Police on Sunday arrested a suspect in a case of premeditated murder committed in the afternoon in Nicosia.

According to the police announcement, the victim is 40-year-old Athanasios Kotslis, from Greece. According to the evidence under review, at around 6.50pm on Sunday, the 40-year-old went up to his third floor apartment to pick up some of his partners belongings, which they had forgotten on their way out.

As reported, the 40-year-old did not have keys to the apartment, and knocked on the door for his roommate to open.

At some point, under unclear circumstances still being investigated, residents of the apartment building heard raised voices and saw the 40-year-old on the ground behind the building.

The victim was taken by ambulance to Nicosia general hospital, where the doctor on duty certified his death.

Police have proceeded to arrest a 38-year-old man on the basis of a court warrant.
